Motion Ratio Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Motion Ratio.
MR = dS / dW
- Where MR is the Motion Ratio ( )
- dS is the change in shock position (in)
- dW is the change in wheel position (in)
How to Calculate Motion Ratio?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Motion Ratio.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the change in shock position (in).
- The change in shock position (in) is given as: 2.5.
- Next, determine the change in wheel position (in).
- The change in wheel position (in) is provided as: 4.
- Finally, calculate the Motion Ratio using the equation above:
MR = dS / dW
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
MR = 2.5 / 4 = .625
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
change in shock position (in) = 4.5
change in wheel position (in) = 7
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator above.
MR = dS / dW = ?
